What Does Your Favourite Study Space in St Andrews Say About You?

By Features Editor 2 years ago

Nicole analyses what your go-to study spot at St Andrews says about you!

Studying: we all do it… well, one would hope so. Whether you’re powering through five paragraphs on floriography in Madame Bovary, polishing up a presentation on foreign policy, or writing a lab report on polymerase chain reactions; I’ve concluded that everyone has their own ideal ratio of productivity to atmosphere when going on their study session. Perhaps this article will provide a variety of insights for you: maybe you’re a bright-eyed first year, or slightly less bright-eyed Covid second year, settling into town and trying to figure out what study space will best suit you. Maybe you’ve been at this university game for four long years and want a moment for self-reflection. Or maybe you want to figure out what lies behind your friends and their study habits. This trove of knowledge lies ahead…

Main Library:

I promise I won’t tell you you’re basic. In fact, I’ll tell you that if you’re at the Main Library to study, I have a lot of respect for you. Nowadays, a seat in the Main Library seems to cost sweat, tears, and tedious pre-booking. For these reasons, I don’t think someone would go there without a purpose (unless it’s to catch sight of your masked library crush). Whether it be an imminent deadline that you just need to clear your mind of distractions to work on, or you’re just an intellectual in our midst, people who study at the Main Library are very much on the grind. You don’t require too much of a visually pleasing environment, just a decent WiFi connection and coursework reading within reach. Proud of you. Please stay hydrated.

King James Library:

You’re not only on the grind, you’re aesthetically on the grind. There’s something about wood panelling, busts that look like they’re marble, and floor-to-ceiling bookcases that just get you going. You’ve probably had or are still in the throes of a Dark Academia phase, and you’ve read a Donna Tartt novel at least once in your life. You may have even unironically worn a tweed item of clothing to a tutorial. I wouldn’t go so far to classify you as a tea or coffee person, but whichever you are, it’s not just a casual thing. You’re a Tea Person or a Coffee Person, with intentional capitalization. I’ve been told that the atmosphere in the King James Library is ‘intense’, but what would I know? I’m too busy gazing off into the warm light as it filters through the square-paned windows, and then wistfully turning back to finish my Old English translations.



Rector’s Café:

You must really like your 2000s hits, because I swear that’s all they play there. You’re a quality multitasker, maybe more on the extroverted side, and enjoy being surrounded by people – whether they’re working like you, savouring a cup of coffee, or chatting with friends. Rector’s has quality lighting with its floor-to-ceiling windows, so you definitely must be a bit of a carpe-diem type, if not with a personality of sunshine, trying to let in what little Scottish sunlight there is into your overworked soul. If you study at Rector’s, I feel like you’re attempting to achieve the feeling of being the poster student that you’ve seen on university publicity, and between working on your assignments and having a decent brew, are doing a little out-of-body visualisation of how diligent you look.


Northpoint:

People who study in cafés need to have a good sense of multitasking and focus. People who study in Northpoint have that but multiplied by ten, because you’re somehow working in the busiest, most touristy café in St Andrews… and getting stuff done? Good on you, but did you make an otherworldly pact to achieve this? Or are you so tempted by the thought of one of Northpoint’s legendary hot chocolates that you’ll fight your way to get a chair, try not to get distracted by their elite playlist, and tune out the volume of a dozen tourists attempting to establish the accuracy of the other Will and Kate sign down the road. If you study at Northpoint, you most likely have incredible taste in music, will go to the ends of the earth for a good cup of tea or coffee, and tend to fluctuate between periods of intense, driven working and absolute procrastination.

Outside:

Quirky, but we love to see it. You enjoy standing out from the crowd and have a very strong sense of individuality, and you definitely have an adventurous streak that our gorgeous coastal town brings out. Not that you can often study outside in St Andrews with the track record of weather in this town, but when the opportunity comes, you love to take it. Whether it be on your ideal bench overlooking the sea, a picnic blanket on Sallies quad, or by the pond in the Botanic Gardens, you have a sense of romantic introspection, enjoy being out in the fresh air, and have a remarkable immunity to cold – or maybe just a really good jacket, tell us your secrets!

In your room:

It’s a go-to for a reason. You are comfortable in your own headspace, and prefer feeling a sense of control over your life in order to be productive, whether it be cracking open a window if it’s too hot, putting on some music or an ambient track if you feel too silent, or nipping down to the kitchen for tea and a biscuit if you’re feeling hungry. You might be happiest when in a slightly flexible routine, and familiarity comforts you above all else, but it pays off because you’re definitely able to get the most done when in your ideal circumstances. You go!

Of course, this isn’t a fully comprehensive list – as an English and Art History major, the only thing I could hesitantly tell you about the J.F. Allen library is the fact that people who do sciences usually end up there. Also, if I tried to list every single study space in St Andrews, I would have no time to go off to my own study spaces! But as long as this article has been a bit of light reading, maybe even for your study break, it will have done its job.

  152. Understanding COSC Certification and Its Importance in Watchmaking
    COSC Certification and its Stringent Standards
    Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Agency, is the authorized Switzerland testing agency that attests to the precision and accuracy of wristwatches. COSC accreditation is a mark of quality craftsmanship and reliability in chronometry. Not all watch brands seek COSC accreditation, such as Hublot, which instead follows to its own demanding standards with mechanisms like the UNICO, achieving comparable precision.

    The Science of Exact Chronometry
    The central system of a mechanical timepiece involves the mainspring, which supplies energy as it loosens. This system, however, can be prone to environmental factors that may affect its precision. COSC-validated mechanisms undergo strict testing—over fifteen days in various circumstances (five positions, 3 temperatures)—to ensure their durability and reliability. The tests measure:

    Typical daily rate precision between -4 and +6 secs.
    Mean variation, highest variation rates, and impacts of thermal variations.
    Why COSC Accreditation Matters
    For watch enthusiasts and connoisseurs, a COSC-certified watch isn’t just a item of tech but a demonstration to lasting quality and accuracy. It signifies a timepiece that:

    Offers excellent dependability and accuracy.
    Provides confidence of quality across the entire design of the timepiece.
    Is likely to hold its worth better, making it a wise investment.
    Famous Chronometer Brands
    Several renowned manufacturers prioritize COSC accreditation for their watches, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, offers collections like the Record and Spirit, which showcase COSC-accredited movements equipped with advanced substances like silicone balance springs to enhance durability and performance.

    Historic Context and the Evolution of Chronometers
    The idea of the chronometer originates back to the need for exact timekeeping for navigation at sea, highlighted by John Harrison’s work in the eighteenth century. Since the official establishment of Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres in 1973, the accreditation has become a standard for evaluating the accuracy of luxury watches, continuing a legacy of superiority in horology.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-certified watch is more than an visual choice; it’s a commitment to excellence and accuracy. For those valuing precision above all, the COSC certification offers peace of thoughts, ensuring that each validated timepiece will operate reliably under various conditions. Whether for personal satisfaction or as an investment decision, COSC-accredited watches stand out in the world of watchmaking, maintaining on a tradition of meticulous chronometry.

  190. 로드스탁과 레버리지 방식의 스탁: 투자 전략의 신규 영역

    로드스탁에서 제공되는 레버리지 방식의 스탁은 주식 시장의 투자의 한 방식으로, 큰 이익율을 목표로 하는 투자자들에게 매혹적인 선택입니다. 레버리지 사용을 사용하는 이 방법은 투자자가 자신의 자금을 넘어서는 자금을 투입할 수 있도록 함으로써, 증권 장에서 훨씬 큰 힘을 가질 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다.

    레버리지 방식의 스탁은 원칙적으로 자본을 차입하여 운용하는 방식입니다. 사례를 들어, 100만 원의 투자금으로 1,000만 원 상당의 주식을 취득할 수 있는데, 이는 투자자가 기본적인 자본보다 훨씬 훨씬 더 많은 주식을 사들여, 주식 가격이 증가할 경우 상응하는 훨씬 더 큰 이익을 가져올 수 있게 됩니다. 그러나, 주식 가격이 떨어질 경우에는 그 손해 또한 크게 될 수 있으므로, 레버리지 사용을 사용할 때는 조심해야 합니다.

    레버리지 사용의 이점과 위험 요소
    레버리지 방식의 스탁은 상당한 수익을 보장하지만, 그만큼 높은 위험도 수반합니다. 증권 거래의 변화는 예상이 곤란하기 때문에, 레버리지를 이용할 때는 항상 시장 추세를 면밀히 주시하고, 피해를 최소로 줄일 수 있는 전략을 마련해야 합니다.

    결론: 신중한 고르기가 요구됩니다
    로드스탁을 통해 제공하는 레버리지 스탁은 막강한 투자 수단이며, 잘 이용하면 많은 수익을 벌어들일 수 있습니다. 그러나 높은 위험도 고려해야 하며, 투자 결정이 충분히 많은 정보와 세심한 판단 후에 이루어져야 합니다. 투자하는 사람의 금융 상황, 리스크 감수 능력, 그리고 장터 상황을 고려한 조화로운 투자 방법이 중요합니다.
